attack on the kerch bridge and not paying enough attention to ensuring that every soldier is alive and properly equipped to fight tomorrow. this war will not be lost at sea or in the rear, it will be lost on the front lines when soldiers die and resources run out. we simply cannot deal with the mass of soldiers coming at us from one place or another. we are doing well so far, but how long can we last? maintaining this level of effectiveness depends on soldiers on the front lines being properly trained, equipped and manned by the best officers. i took a lot from what you said at the beginning, but we are in a transition period. i suppose you might want to know my thoughts on syrsky's recent article, but we still have a lot to do, and most of these tasks require careful planning, and...

planning is very important, but there is also such a thing as general the concept of war, and you are also very good that you mentioned the colonel-general of the syrian army commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine, and he very clearly warned about the plans the enemy, he decided not to talk about ukraine's plans in public, so we understand that what you said should be done, and even more, but there is another question ... what the enemy is preparing, and syrskyi gave very specific numbers , so 690 thousand of the offensive contingent, that is, an increase of 150 to 170 thousand, perhaps at least. yes, from a public relations perspective, it was probably an effective interview, but i, and i'm sure many others, are concerned about the specific actions behind the words. it is obvious that russia will continue to send people to fight like she did before,

there is no sign that they are running out of men, or that they have trouble recruiting new ones, since most of the new recruits die, russia doesn't need to pay them. society in russia has not yet fully realized the scale of what is happening. perhaps there may be some changes every month, but for now russia is focused on a long war. putin is negotiating with china, north korea and iran to ensure. arms supply, they are trying to restore own defense industry, but it's not as effective as it could be because they've already taken a lot of their best people and sent them to the front, effectively ruining some of their plans, but i don't think it's worth paying too much attention to, i think we should focus on what is happening on our side, if sirsky says he has a plan, the question is what is that plan? if his plan is to

continue fighting as we have been fighting, a small soviet army against a large soviet army, we will not win, because we will not can cope with the numerical advantage of the enemy, the number of equipment and people will always be on their side, and this requires a change in approaches to conducting war. if we plan to change tactics and strategic approach today or tomorrow, we must teach people to fight in a different way already. today, this means that our best officers must be trained in new ways of waging war, the best, and we need to find more officers who can implement these new approaches, because fighting in the same way, i would call it's the syrsky way, just pushing people forward and telling them to stay there and die, it's not a winning tactic, a losing strategy, it's not going to let us win, let's go on.

we're going to lose people, kill soldiers on that side, ok we're killing 1200 a day, has that made a difference, a year and a half ago we were killing thousands a day, that's made a difference, the answer is no, we're still in the same situation but we ourselves are now weakened because we're losing people, so i'm back to planning again, we need to plan and change tactics so that syrskyi's words turn into reality. this will not happen without fundamental changes in the system. new doctrine, new prescribed methods, elimination of senseless bureaucracy everywhere. better training of personnel, all this should happen. then we will be able to win because we will be better than them. dear colonel grant, you see, well, the plans of the enemy plus or minus have been clarified and it has become clear, so that now the enemy will be pulling in an additional amount of manpower. and they will try

to achieve very specific results in the future the end of the summer campaign, at the beginning of the spring campaign. the second point will be the destruction of our energy structure, that is , in... they have already gone for it, and we understand that while additional air defense systems are being put in, our population will suffer additional suffering, the enemy is also counting on this, hoping that internally - the ukrainian scenario, i hope that it will be possible to contain the situation, but the enemy is counting on it, and the third point, yes, it is uncertainty related to the american election campaign, if we talk about russian plans, which. you see them let me return to your first thesis that russia is betting that energy issues can divide ukrainian society. this month, when i was in ukraine for several weeks, i did not welcome any tension on this issue. on the contrary, many people treat the situation with a certain irony

and joke about it. i went to a bar in kyiv, where the head waiter informed everyone: "we are on generators, so you will not be able to order fries." but everyone can take hot dog and everyone laughed. this shows that ukrainians do not allow energy problems to affect their spirit. so there is a certain level of acceptance that ukrainians will not be defeated by something as insignificant as electricity, be it lanterns or candles or something else. and i haven't noticed any significant complaints or negative reactions. but in the spring the mood can change, that is... if it goes through the winter, the winter can be very, very hard and harsh. of course, the situation may change in winter, but there is an important point: ukrainians are a strong people, hard times did not break britain during world war ii, and i don't see

the hard times changing or breaking ukraine now. i do not feel this and do not hear such conversations from people, on the contrary, i hear stubbornness and determination. people say that they are... ukrainians and such trifles cannot overcome them. this is what i heard in kyiv and sumy. last week, when i was there, maybe the situation in lviv is a little different, but i heard exactly the same conversations in kyiv and sumy. one way or another, let's return to the topic of russia. i don't think russia has a recruitment problem like we imagine. she can difficulties in finding people, but the large sums of money offered for service attract tens of thousands of russians, because these sums are too big to be ignored if they are offered money for a year, two or three jobs, for one month of service, many people are willing to join the army, so i don't think that putin is facing an acute shortage of people yet, but his real problem is leadership and a lack of qualified officers, many of

those who were needed to lead the troops have already died. in the first days of the war, we killed many of their generals and key commanders, now putin has to rake. that is, replacing them with new people, looking for new commanders for battalions and other units, and i suspect that many of these new battalion commanders are not capable of effectively managing their units, and they are there simply because they are someone's friend, not because have experience or skills. such a problem is facing putin. but i think with russia you should always be careful about possible surprises. as i mentioned before. they are not predictable, they come through kharkiv, we did not expect, no one seems to have expected this, grast, and what they are going to do next, they will do something again unpredictable, this is russia, can the war escalate again through belarus, will they decide to attack in

somewhere else, who knows, but they will definitely try something new, the main problem is that russia continues to build up their resources and... us step by step, they have more resources than us if they decide to shift their forces to another place, we will manage to stop them, but every time we stop them, it also prevents us from developing counterattacks and training our battalions and brigades in new methods, so we risk remaining the same as we were from 2014 to 2022, just a defensive army in the trenches instead of being an army capable of offensive actions, and this is very dangerous. thank you very much, dear colonel gran, for this extremely important conversation on the espresso channel. i would like to remind our viewers that glen, a retired colonel of the british army, was currently working for them grant, a famous military expert god save

this fits into the general process, this is how the world agreed in hearing trump and the corresponding changes, trump's plus-minus concept is clear, this is what he wants in that or another way to force, if not russia, then ukraine, he will also need a result. roman petrovich, how do you rate now? the current, well, i won't say historical, but extremely important negotiating point. first, for what it is necessary to pay attention, in the story surrounding the trip of president kuleba to guangzhou, this is the place itself, and the form and content, because here only from the fragments of the first, second and third it is possible to understand that no more than 10, well, a maximum of 15% got into the information field from what... happened there, well, you don't need to be too prepared there to understand,

for the sake of even a three-hour conversation with the minister, you don't need to go to gondjova. first of all, what kind of city is this? this is a city where diplomats and officials like the united states are present at one of the highest levels states of america and great britain. first, i don't mean the first thing by chance, it's... it says that if there was a bilateral meeting, it took place in beijing, which means that there are meetings far beyond the borders of the bilateral dialogue. now. let's move on to what can be done for three days, three days, because you can spend, let's say, three meetings, and go back on that, and what to count on, well, first of all, if the calculation was on a sweet candy and on the result, then mr. kuleba would not go there, but he would go there

the head of the yarmak office, and everyone is writing and talking about it now, and it's true, that is, it's... technological work that is done there. now, what is the subject of this work and why it takes three days and such a multi-echeloned, multi-layered cake. let's pay attention to what has been happening in the last two weeks in order to realize how much it has affected ukrainian-chinese, ukrainian-american, ukrainian-british, ukrainian-european relations, because this is where we need to look. answer, and yes, the first thing, you remember, and we all remember, orbán's voyage, moscow, beijing, washington, kyiv, moscow, beijing, washington, and as a result of the decision of the ukrainian government to stop the transit of oil, friendship through the oil pipeline, because as it turned out,

orban did not just go for a ride, but renewed contracts related to supplies to russia components and components of missile and space weapons, which hungary and the enterprise hungary purchased in the netherlands, france, germany and great britain, and through third-fifth companies via china it was sent to russia. reaction of the ukrainian government to these actions of orban was a castle, just to stop the oil pipeline. second, information about the fact that president biden delegated the authority to introduce and control sanctions against china, issues related to russian aggression against ukraine, to the ministry of finance, the national people's congress. this is very interesting information, because it

says that these issues are transferred to the technological level. that is, they are monitored 24 hours a day, that is the second thing, and it is clear that this is caused by the previous information that i said and the conversations that were held under during the nato summit in washington, where the same orbán showed himself rather strangely, strangely, i will say so, for the nato environment. the third thing that cannot be overlooked is how the ministry's information. of foreign affairs of ukraine regarding minister kuleba's trip to china was returned to moscow. pay attention, there the emphasis is made, cut out, copied the phrase that ukraine is already ready to sit down at the negotiating table tomorrow. and one more important thing: if china didn't

behave, but when it got into the eyes of the bully, it has an extreme need to save it. relations with ukraine, because it's 9 million tons of grain, because it's things related to titanium, the supply of titanium sponge, it's things related to rare earth metals, that is, it's a whole range of technologies related to actual bilateral relations, so it's even visible from rhetoric and tonality of rhetoric between kyiv. and beijing, but as we see the meeting is in guangzhou, i mentioned again that this is a free economic zone, it is the capital of china's relations with the whole world, and when, as we recall, the meetings were with secretary of state blinken, yelen is there, they are

did not take place in beijing, they took place in gongzhou, this is very important to understand, and so ... what could be the content of these negotiations? certainly the issue of bilateral relations, certainly a topic related to china's initiatives, but in this case , i would put the topics related to the so-called negotiation process not in the second place, not in the third place, not even in the fourth place, if it was about that, then it concerned, unless it was just basic things, and yes, the un charter and the principle of sovereignty and territorial integrity, and it quickly sounded and covered everything the second is the principle of conducting negotiations, as was indicated by the ukrainian side with a certain mediation, and whether china can count on such a status in this case, china cannot in such a case

count on its status as a mediator, because it is not suitable, it is in on the side of the enemy, he is a satellite of moscow, and kulema very tactfully made it clear, however, in this situation there is a certain coincidence of information, which... president zelenskyy repeats quite often now, about the so-called negotiation process, about the myruchi summit of the russian side, who needs such a meeting with tasha in gonzhov. i will explain why, because i am convinced that in gongzhou, in addition to the contacts that i have already mentioned, including, obviously, there was a dialogue at the technological level with a certain representative of the russian side or an authorized representative. who could be the same vanya, in relation to the conditions and possibilities of the participation of the russian side in such a summit. otherwise, there is such a coincidence

of the informative and concluding phrase that was voiced by the president of ukraine regarding the negotiation process and the format of the peace summit there was no next one. from my point of view, to date, including what mr. kuleba did. what was done by boris johnson, in a well-known article, what was done by robert o'brien, in a well-known article, these are the so-called touchstones, right away, mr. antin, i want to say, they are not worth paying attention to, because no negotiation process can be launched in the current conditions it won't work, not because they don't want it in washington, brussels, beijing, but it won't happen for that simple reason. the fact that moscow views any negotiation process as a trap, and not only that for ukraine, but also for those who

are talking about it the most today, and this makes it clear that in his article, the already cursed and completely in quotation marks, i take these words not a hero, boris johnsonyuk, because according to what he writes there, clearly visible, you can think anything you want, but there is only one s... to put the führer in place, that is power. i agree with you, mr. roman, well, look, there are two more very important signals here: one signal came, not surprisingly, from the kremlin, that is, they reacted immediately like this to kulebe's meeting with onei, and accordingly, they said that it is not time, let's say, to hold some negotiations, and again they undermined the legitimacy of our government, that is , they are already definitively betting on some... another scenario, perhaps, except for force, a force scenario plus, and you very rightly noted the visit of johnsonyuk to trumpaniuk, yes we understand that trumpaniuk can be a very

unpleasant surprise, yes, i do not, i do not call for fighting with him there and so on, but we understand that he will have a solution generated by the donald's office of simple solutions trump, yes, and these decisions can be ours at the expense of whatever is desired, as well as this business that accompanies it. extremely high activity of the so-called gray diplomacy, here i completely agree with you, gray diplomacy begins to draw one or another scenarios, but everything rests on one side in the ambition of the führer, who says no, and, accordingly, china, who says: yes, yes, negotiations are possible, but not now, not at this moment, but from my point of view, in the next, coming weeks, sociologists will show the dominance of garis. in relation to trump, what trump can resort to, understanding his weakness and the need for a change, a radical change in the strategy, the tactics

of the election campaign, he will start to hurry, he will start to answer all these questions in a hurry, and we will get many more surprises, and i urge everyone to be ready for these surprises, so if yesterday you and i could talk about the fact that... trump has a better chance, and biden may or may not be able to, then today i can say with full responsibility: the trumps are in this fight, they do not look like the leaders of the race, and what will happen in the final, well, today i will not say that trump can to lead the race, but the most important thing is not that, the important thing is that the united states of america is in the shape of ... kamala harris, about whom you can say anything, but she is not just a tough person, as

joe biden called her in the last speech, this... is not a political shark, which, just as it bit the spines of gangs in california, rapists, swindlers and so on, it will do the same to everyone, both internal and external criminals, in case of victory. actually, this is the tough guy america needed, that is the case when we'. months, despite the fact that the election campaign in the united states of america is intensifying, we will also have a certain correction of the foreign policy course, i would not compare and equate the foreign policy of biden with the foreign policy of kamala harris, especially since it is necessary to go back and read it carefully speeches, at least at all munich security conferences. it's

a smile, as experts write, not women, the way she laughs in response to trump's meanness, it's a tiger smile, and in fact , there are a lot of famous people behind this twist, but still more unknown things, from here i can say that in ukraine in this situation, first of all, if the political leaders do not know what and how to do, they should at least... keep silent, because in the current situation the chances have not just leveled off, but before us the perspective of obscurity, mr. roman, the perspective of obscurity, i would like you to highlight certain points with a torch, by the way, i would like to remind our tv viewers how at one time an extremely unsuccessful part of the ukrainian political system tried to play along against joseph biden, in particular we we remember how it was released to the public. arena,

who? andriy derkach, yes, the son of the former head of the security service of ukraine, who is now accused of spying for russia and working in the main russian intelligence agency, well, this is a lyric, now is a historical moment, indeed, very appropriate, you also mentioned valery zaluzhny’s speech, yes and there was an article, an interview, of commander-in-chief syrskyi, this is actually about scenarios, we understand, on the one hand there is a plan, so to speak... putin, orban, maybe trump, who suits them, then there is a strict ukrainian reality, because the enemy is going to hit the energy sector in the future, we will try to neutralize this matter with the help of air defense systems, but in any case, if the scenario comes in the winter, in the spring we may have a slightly different public mood, and it is not known whether this will be in the spring or in the middle of winter, and the enemy is also counting on it, well,

accordingly... and donald trump, he will actively play with what he will be offered, for example, by putin's orban's environment. it is important that, for what we were talking about, the materials are printed by boris johnson, robert o'brien, theses were pronounced by valery zaluzhny, already as the ambassador of ukraine to great britain at the royal conference. further, syrskyi's interview was not analyzed. as separate self-sufficient things, because they all call to each other. and yes, several conclusions from this large size and large volume of voiced things. and so, firstly, it is obvious that leadership in security issues on the eurasian continent will gradually pass from the united states of america to great britain. and this phrase that boris johnson has is that... american

the contingent in europe should be replaced by ukrainian troops - this is the answer to the question that awaits europe, because the ukrainian armed forces are the only armed forces, as boris johnson writes, on the continent, capable of resisting the russian novals, this must be remembered. the second thing is super important in this situation, which is obvious, despite the fact that london has left the european union, and london will set the tone in security issues in the nato system. and here it is very important that rütte will play a key role there. one more the most important thing is what valery zaluzhny said in his speech at this conference, it is what gentlemen...
